Pause of Polarity Interchange
A wanderer’s life sets way for fable.
Each foot in mind amid a narrow fringe.
I am nowhere; treading where I’m able.
Left or right; an answer which twice depends.
Senseless; I cast myself upon the breeze.
An impulsive gambit one’s fears entice.
I’m he, who pokes the cat to steal the cheese.
He who blurs the line betwixt men and mice.
What character? What courage? Of what cause?
What interchange controls polarity?
Within resistance I find time to pause.
Standing in this void I find clarity-
What’s tried is true, in greed, soon you will find.
Blink not an eye; Snap! You’ve lost your mind!
